The aim of this site is to provide an insight into the work of the Telford Race, Equality and Diversity Partnership (TREDP).

We are a non-profit making voluntary organisation, independent of central and local government. 

In late 2008 the Telford Race, Equality and Diversity Partnership Board agreed in principle to become a full-blown Equality and Human Rights organisation.  Following local research undertaken with key stakeholders in April 2009 a briefing paper was presented to the Board on July 2009.  You can view the draft discussion paper and the briefing paper "Developing an Equality and Diversity Partnership - The Way Forward" by clicking on the appropriate link.

As a Partnership which works across the equality strands our aims are to:

• Eliminate discrimination
• Provide equal opportunity for all
• Promote good community relations

Our current staff and projects are about addressing inequalities and tackling discrimination and harassment in Telford & Wrekin.

This includes complainant aid and support for those facing discrimination and hate crime due to age, disability, gender, gender identity, race, religious belief and sexual orientation. As much of our work is achieved in partnership we see this site as a way of highlighting the excellent work of our partner organisations.

We aim to provide information to enable users to find out more about the wide variety of groups and organisations that exist across the Borough.

And finally we have made all our reports, leaflets and newsletters available to download free of charge.
